3M High Performance Masking Tape 232

3M High Performance Masking Tape 232 is a versatile tape that is designed to conform well around corners and over irregular surfaces. Its rubber adhesive provides instant sticking power and strong holding power, making it resistant to lifting, curling, and adhesive transfer when removed from surfaces such as EDPM rubber moldings. This tape is specifically engineered to deliver superior performance as a paint masking tape for demanding applications.

The crepe paper backing of 3M High Performance Masking Tape 232 tears easily and offers moderate conformability around corners and over irregular surfaces. It also lifts off cleanly without leaving any residue. The natural rubber adhesive bonds well to various surfaces including paper, metal, wood, and painted surfaces, providing reliable holding power and conformability. Even under normal operating conditions, this tape can be removed in one piece without slivering.

For those seeking a similar tape with greater elongation and superior sliver resistance, we recommend the 3M High Performance Green Masking Tape 401+.

Recommended Applications:
  • Paint masking
  • Labelling
  • Temporary holding
  • Patching

What is Masking Tape?

Masking tape is a specially developed tape that serves multiple purposes. It helps protect surrounding surfaces from overspray, provides clean paint lines, and can be easily and cleanly removed when the task is complete. 3M masking tapes are known for their strong adhesion, resistance to solvents and water from paint, and their ability to hang plastic sheeting. The crepe paper backing of the tape allows it to conform to curved and irregular surfaces. Additionally, the tape can be torn by hand, making it easy to apply without the need for tools.
